SENIGRS Motto: Vince! Qzzi Se Vince! Clary Flower: Forget-Me-N015 Clary Colorrz Blue and While Class Poem of 1932 VISION We saw bright wisdom in the blue, That crowns Attainment's marble stair, Dressed in robes of shaded hue, With pearls deep-woven in her hair. NW e sought the pearls that wreathed her head, With zeal our journey we began. We found rough steps Of stone, instead Of polished steps untrod by man. Alas, those steps of marble, all Can turn to steps of roughest stone, On which we trip, and sometimes fall, And feel discouraged, tired, alone. And yet, though only midway now, The pure, reflected glory of The sun, accents her shining brow, More precious, though so high above. That quest was not a shadowy hope: The joys we've had, the friends we've made With smiles, have paved the rugged slope, Have given warm and friendly aid. 7 For future plans this rule we take: Wisdom cannot be a gratis dole, But always must we strive to make The pearls Of wisdom still our goal.

An individuals looking back to the past takes away the keeness of his forward vision and brings him to a near standstill. Sometimes though, in building up the foundation of the future we must look back in order that we see more clearly in what way to shape this foundation and that we may also gain inspiration. Only with this in view do we allow ourselves to glance backward-that we are doing it for the good of the future. As students about to graduate we are looking forward with a most intense delight to a future of continued education ffor education shall last to the end of our days? and activity in each of our own chosen lines which in some way shall add to the advance of all mankind. As students just finishing our high school course we 'are looking back and forming a clear picture of life's lessons which we have learned-some in the classroom, some which come with years and others which mother and father or association with classmates and friends have made plain to us. We, in the end, have learned them from hard experi- ence, but even though we have so many to help us on our way, most of us do not always follow. Now we have learned that the wisest course is to love and honor and trust our comrades, to entertain only the noblest and best thoughts in our mind and to speak evil of no one. Though we knew this to be the best way and wished to follow it how long and hard it has been to do so. We shall never give up. Always shall we try to practice the Golden Rule in our everyday life. If we are of the right mind and feeling towards everyone and everything it will be a joy to live and little things which have vexed us before will straighten them- selves out. Example is the best teacher and it is for us to set a fine example. We have not always realized the responsibility which rests upon us. We are setting the standard which those younger than we will follow and look up to. We all are hero worshippers and look to our parents and older friends for in- spiration and leadership. Responsibility rests with those who take it and we gladly wish to bear it. We are endeavoring to become true men and women in the full sense of the word. We have found many examples of fine men and women in our daily contacts and these have inspired us to work which perhaps before we thought impossible. Our friends and classmates have sometimes brought lessons home to us-quite forcibly but should we dislike those who have helped us? We have been building up finer natures through it all. If we have not seen examples of what is good for us we have learned that which would do us harm and to avoid it. An upright and a well-rounded character-the body, the mind and the spirit -tuned to the finest of things is our aim. To know ourselves and to be our- selves is also our aim for, He conquers who conquers himselffl THE CARDINAL - 1932 15 Senior Class News Early last fall the Seniors elected the following officers: President ....,........,,...........,.......,..................................,..,.,......

Helen Freed, Virginia Stafford Under the guidance of Miss Ruth Cooper, our Senior sponsor, we feel that we have accomplished many things during the year. Both the boys and girls had very successful basketball teams this year- the girls being victors of inter-class and the boys third place. Early in the fall, the class was very ambitious, having a dance to raise money for the play books, and giving a masquerade party for the juniors. Our chapel program was one of the most original of the year. As it came during February and near Lincoln's birthday, we had Reverend Stone of james- town who knew Lincoln, speak. A play, written by four senior girls was given -namely Mary Todd, which characterized her romance with Mr. Lincoln. Then all attention was turned to the senior play. We elected Mrs. Bab- cock as coach and decided on the date of the play-March 17th. Now we are looking forward to graduation ceremonies. The senior year of High School is one of the most interesting years of school, the one most enjoyable, and the most reluctantly left. We leave a sin- cere welcome and our best wishes for the success of those who will enter the Senior class next fall. D.

Could anyone have thought of all the things that really happened? Winston Peake as Pa Bence, was certainly extra-special as he stamped around and used such shocking language in his anger. Alberta Anderson as Ma Bencef who walk- ed around with a vague, dumb look-begging father to take his soda, was very cleverly done. So was the role of Kate, portrayed by Virginia Stafford, the be- loved daughter, the heroine, sophisticated, beautiful, spoiled. There was James Gardner as Kempy,,' the plumber, who was some day going to be a great architect and build a church with four steeples and a dome. Mary Gardner had but to act her own delightful self to play the part of Ruth, who believed im- plicitly in Kempy. Then there was Connie Atwood as the independent jane, who just had to find out for herself about everything, and Archie Anderson as Ben, her husband, who was, as he claimed a complete real estate agent. Last but not least Paul Coe as the suave Duke Merrill, the here who arrived at just the right time. The jist of the play is: Kempy was the plumber who came to fix the kit- chen pipe just on the day Kate arrived home from New York with new clothes and high ambitions and just on the day Duke chose to visit the Bences. Kate and Duke, endeavoring to patch up an old quarrel become more irritated at each other. Then, when Kate met Kempy, she ran off and married him to spite Duke. Of course, Kempy would leave the water turned off, so-what with Pa howling for water and Ma fainting when she learned to whom Kate was mar- ried and jane butting her nose in and trying to get to the bottom of everything, and Ruth faithfully defending Kempy all the time-you can imagine just how mixed up things were. Meanwhile, Duke had bought the Bences home from Ben and given it to Kempy, which caused more complications. But everything was unraveled in the end as in most plays. As after most plays, there was a grand party at Coe's. Nor can anyone of the cast forget the dinner before the 8:15 curtain, when lines were furtively reviewed between mouthfuls, and our efficient coach, Mrs. Corrie W. Babcock, being the only calm person at the table. To show their appreciation of her untiring efforts- the Seniors presented Mrs. Babcock with a timely gift and a multitude of prais- es for making the Senior Play of 1932 such a success. ' Afterthoughts: We praise Florence Gron for well-given prologue and Fat Wilson, who was such a businesslike expressman. No one will forget the clev- er costumes each character wore, especially the evening dresses of the girls in the second act, which added color to the stage, and Ma's flannel night gown and curlers, which just about brought down the house. Those who applied the grease paint--namely coach and Bill Ingleson did so as professionals and pa's bald head and wrinkles were a work of art. No wonder our play was such a success! C. A.

Both the boys and the girls inter-class basketball teams were well repre- sented, both sides winning many games. Charlotte Klock and Margaret Brook were chosen by popular vote to represent the class at Fredonia on Play Day. The Freshmen Assembly was held late in October so the class worked out a Hallowe'en entertainment. The Annual Freshman Party was held at Bonita. It proved very successful and a good though rather exciting time was had by all. We look forward with great anticipation to our Sophomore year. Neola Fry, '33. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF-- Mr. Swanson lost his ego- john Cole didn't grumble about an assignment- Hugh Clark smoked anything besides Cubebs- Bertie Anderson kept her hair combed- Students in the lab studied- Florence Gron forgot refreshments every noon- Miss Scheible wore the same dress two days in succession- Babbling Brook stopped gurgling- Dorothy Terrill got writers cramp- Prof didn't repeat- Jeanette Freed gave some guys a break- jo Van Vleck attended school five days a week- James McGraw didn't ask questions in Geometry- The Junior boys agreed with the junior girls- All Seniors graduated- It didn't look cloudy on May Day- 20 THE CARDINAL - 1932 May Day Festival In the spring a young man's fancy Lightly turns to thoughts of love --and May Queens! Or so it seems in Lakewood this year, for once again the student body chose and chose wisely from the Court of the Senior Class the Queen of the May. Helen Freed, so completely representative of Maytime and Seniors, with all of the handicaps of an indoor coronation ceremony, was indeed, Queen Helen. The regal note of the ceremony was struck by the band in its March, and held by King Winter fmore jovial than we ever believed him to bej in the person of Millard Wilson, partly, and not in any sense loathe to relinquish his throne. Of course, credit must be accorded King Winter's right hand man, his Master of Ceremonies, Robert Nichols, for he mastered the occasion. After the suspense of minutes, enter the Senior girls, and there, apart from the others, the Queen attended by her Maid-of-Honor, Virginia Stafford. Who could but be subservient to such royalty, chosen by popular vote from the roy- alty of the Senior class? The Coronation ceremony was the beginning of further festivities of Vis- iting Day, including track and field events. We enjoyed our visiting day, neigh- boring friends, and we trust you too, look back upon it, with pleasure. Q CDRGANIZATICJNS fa THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the representative of the student body. The stu- dents have the privilege of bringing up any complaint or idea of betterment connected with the school before the council by way of their home room repre- sentatives, there it is discussed, and either the alteration is made or well grounded reasons for not doing so are given. The members are elected by popu- lar vote, and are representative of the most dependable and most trustworthy students. The following people are members: Mr. Mathewson N Miss sfheibie T Advisors Virginia Stafford Robert Nichols f Senior Representatives Jeanette Freed Thomas P rceu i junior Representatives u Mary Frances Isbell F Richard Nichols r Freshman Reperesentatives Evelyn Bemus Ralph Bennett e Sophomore Representatives Helen Freed Girls' Glee Club Representative jack Smith Orchestra Representative At the first part of the year the meetings were held after school in the music room, but later it was decided to hold them in the Domestic Science room during lunch hour. This proved much more enjoyable and more convenient. Last year the council started the idea of all-activities emblems, to be given to the student whose school rating was superior, in scholarship, sports, and oth- er activities. This year stars were chosen to be put on the emblems. The Council also started an enjoyable social hour this year, at which the students could either dance, play cards, or converse. The purpose of the Student Council is to bring about better cooperation be- twen students and teachers. We sincerely hope that it will continue to grow, and will come to be even a greater part of the students than it is today. E.

In December, 1931, the club pre- sented the memorable 'Knicker-bocker Club for chapel-a night club scene with universally known vocalists and stars present who contributed to the pro- gram, such as Kate Smith, Ruth Etting, Polly Moran and Madame Schumann- Heink. Then came the annual operetta, which was rather brief this year be- cause the chapel program was to be repeated at the same time. Yet despite its brevity The Radio Maid was a successful venture. The cast was as follows: june Worthington .......,... .....,,.... J osephine Van Vlack Robert Holbrook ........ .......,................ L avern Waid Mr, Holbrook .........., .,,........

M ary Louise Coe Alice ........,,..................................,.,.......................,.,,......,..................... Mary Frances Isbell The Boys' Club Club assisted in the operetta. A dance at the village hall was held afterwards for the members of the cast and friends. After the operetta all attention was turned to Fredonia. Innumerable dif- ferences arose as to what the costume should be this year. Finally after much hair pulling and teeth clenching sweaters of blue and white were de- cided upon-which were very effective with the white skirts and which caused very favorable comment at Fredonia. Then, one mustn't forget the several bake sales scattered throughout the year to raise funds. Now a committee is planning a party for the girls-similar to last year's roller-skating affair which will be held in the immediate future. The last appearances of the Girls' Glee Club will be at the June Parent Teachers Meeting and at Commencement or Class Night.

Miss Evangeline Flohr Since last year, the boys seem to have acquired talent in the way of sing- ing. Also, they have become very exclusive, numbering only seventeen. The boys took part in the P. T. A. Christmas Festival, arranged a Chapel program-a mock wedding which resulted in cabbage throwing, helped the Girls' Glee Club in the annual operetta, journeyed to Fredonia to take part in the Music Festival, and now commencement activities are in view. Two important questions remain: 1. How many of us are going to be accepted members of Glee Club next year? 2. Are we going to have another party at Midway this year? Our Crchestra The orchestra is one of our oldest musical organizations, but the strong interest in the band of late has caused interest in it to wane slightly. However, the members have Worked hard on their music this year and some good work has been done, under the leadership of Miss Evangeline Flohr. The orchestra made two public appearances this year, the night of the Senior Play, March 17th, and the P.T.A. Music Festival. The members of the Orchestra are: Madeline Russell Paul Blair .........

It made two public appearances before Christmas, one at P. T. A. and one at Chapel, besides playing at every home basketball game during the winter. During the Spring it played on the May Day Festival Program and on the P.T.A. Musical Festival Program. B In January, several new members were added, making the total enrollment thirty-two. The new members, as well as the old ones, worked hard on several new selections, and the band was well represented at the Fredonia Festival, April twenty-ninth.

Mellophone The encouragement and boosting that everyone has given the band has aided greatly in its success last year and this year, and every member wishes to take this opportunity to thank every student of Lakewood High, parents, friends, and teachers for the kind cooperation given. We sincerely hope that the band shall go forward and climb to far greater heights than it has today, and that many new members will be ready to start work next fall. Band work is one of the most fascinating and interesting outside activities, and we, that are leaving it, leave it with a feeling of deep appreciation and a strong hope that many others will learn to value it as we have. Every band member gladly gives honor where honor is due-to Mr. Ar- thur R. Goranson, for we esteem him not only for his musical appreciation and ability but also as a man. D. T. 732 THE CARDINAL - 1932 25 Hi-Y Club t Officers of the Hi-Y Club for the past year were elected just before the close of school in the spring of 1931. They were as follows: g President ................,,,.,......,,,....,:.... ..,..........,...............4... E dward Loomis Vice-President ......., ............. R ichard Nichols Secretary .,.,....,,,,... ,......- J ames McGraw Treasurer ........ ....................,.. J ack Smith Sponsor ..................,,,,,,.,..4.....4.,.....................,...........,.... Coach Swearingen The Hi-Y Club is a branch of the Y. M. C. A. in the high school which is made up of the students: Its purpose is: To create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. Along with this is our motto or slogan- Clean living, clean speech, clean athletics, clean scholarship and contagious Christian character. We began the year by printing the Football Schedules, attractive little cards, which were given to any student 'wishing one. Our second large project was to sponsor a school newspaper which should be a permanent feature in our high school. The Club published a small mimeographed paper for a short time and then handed it over to a regular staff. We have watched with great interest its success and believe it to have been well worth our while. Our meetings every Wednesday evening in the school have consisted main- ly of discussion of school problems and their remedies and programs of various games. Every month we held a supper meetingftureen style. Twice during the year we held initiation ceremonies, each time admitting four new members. About Christmas time we entertained the Chautauqua County Boys Forum at the M. E. Church where discussion of the Hi-Y and its relation to school problems followed a dinner. The last meeting was a Weiner roast held several miles up the lake. .There was a general program of games and all the fun which accompanies an evening by a roaring fire. W W. P. '32 26 THE CARDINAL - 1952 The Cardinal Notes H OW School Newrpaper In the spring of 1931 the Hi-Y Club resolved when school began again in September to start and sponsor a school newspaper which would be per- manent. We made plans to ublish ourselves the first three or four issues in order to see how the student body would take to it, then it would be handed over to a regular staff. Setember rolled around and everyone in the club helped in gathering news for a mimeographed four-page paper which was issued three times, being given out in Chapel. It seemed to meet with favor. Meanwhile the possibilities of having a printed paper were being looked into. A printed paper would require advertisements which would be especially hard to obtain at a time like this. Since the financial part of a newspaper means its existence, we thought it best to mimeograph the paper thruout the year, hoping that next year a snappy little printed paper could be published. So we handed the paper over to a regular staff which we had appointed. From then on a larger paper, usually eight pages, was put out and three cents a copy charged for it. Almost a hun- dred subscriptions for the year at thirty cents each were acquired in the first drive. The name The Cardinal Notes was chosen for it. None of us who worked on the staff to put out the paper every month had had any experience. We looked upon this year as a starter and did not expect much better results than we received. A number of changes were made with the members on the staff and the following is a list of those who have held positions. Editor-in-Chief ............ ...............................................

We hope to have a fine and snappy little printed paper from now on. This year has seen the beginning and the hardest part of publishing a school paper done. The student body is interested in the paper and the staff has a year's experience behind them. All indications favor the steady publication of The Cardinal Notes from now on. W. P. '32 THE CARDINAL - 1932 27 Scouts of Troop 31 The Boy Scouts of Lakewood Troop 51 have been very busy doing things this year. At the first of the year the scouts had a contest selling candy to raise money for the Troop to pay each scout's way to camp. The Scouts were most interested in making belts and shields of leather which they decorated with their camp awards. Wheii the Troop meetings started again in the fall the main objects were passing tests and earning merit badges. The new scouts worked on their ten- derfoot tests, the others succeeding in getting four or five new second class, a first class and one star. In February the annual Court of Awards was held at St. Luke's Church in Jamestown. Two Lakewood boys, john Bootey and Charles Guertin received the Eagle Badge which is the highest rank awarded to any scout. Charles Becker already an Eagle Scout received a Bronze Palm for his extra work. The troop was awarded twenty-five merit badges. Lakewood was presented with a streamer for the flag as a special award as most outstand- ing Troop of the council. At the present time the patrols are preparing for an Inter-Patrol Contest which is to include Signaling, First Aid, Fire by Friction, Knot Tying and the Oath and Laws. Each patrol enters one or two persons in each event. There are metal badges for the first places. Soon there will be a Camp Bree held overnight at Allegheny to which the Troop will send its representative patrol to enter different contests. Later a larger event called a Jamboree will be held at Rochester and the best Patrol will represent the Troop there. This year the scouts will hold their summer camp on their new site on Chautauqua Lake near Light House Point. It will be a great improvement over the previous camps. It is hoped the Lakewood scouts will all be present. ROBERT BOOTEY, '36 GIRL SCOUTS The Girl Scouts have been exceptionally active this year. There are now two Troops. Mrs. Iver Anderson is captain of Troop One assisted by Martha Nelson and Mary Gardner. Miss Dorothea Scheible is captain of Troop Two assisted by Bertie Anderson. Troop One meets Mondays after school and Troop Two meets every Tuesday evening. Throughout the year both Troops have done quite a bit of hiking. In November Troop Two spent a week end at Camp Newatah. Lakewood was well represented at the Rally in December, several girls receiving badges. In the spring the girls of Troop Two visited the journal Office. At present we are looking forward to the big Spring Rally to be held at Camp Newatah the second Saturday in june. ALBERTA ANDERSON, '32 28 THE CARDINAL - 1932 Domestic Science Department Our new addition brought to us a very popular department which is used incessantlyg it is the Domestic Science Department. We have two large roomsg one a kitchen in which all of the cooking is done, and the other a dining room. Very appetizing odors often come from the kitchen and are carried to all parts of the building. Our kitchen is very modernly equipped with an electric re- frigerator, four gas stoves, and a row of sinks and cupboards through the middle of the room. In addition we have a china closet in which we keep our dishes. In the room used for a dining room we have new chairs and tables. We have had a visitor for the last few days, who by name was Mickey Mouse. He was our mascot but just as soon as Miss Perkins had built him a home and bed, he ran away. Everyone feels quite downhearted about losing our little pet. In our election of officers, Robert Klock was elected presidentg Betty jane Vernon vice president and Charlottle Klock, secretary. The classes gave a chapel program the 19th of Februaryg the cast for which was picked from all classes. QN. B. We are all rejoicing now as our Mickey Mouse has come back to us., C. K., '35 SEWING DEPARTMENT In january our new Sewing Department started classes under the capable leadership of Miss Perkins. The department is cleverly furnished with every article necessary for a perfect sewing room. The students have made many useful personal articles including pajamas and slips. The class has been a complete success and we hope the desire for sewing in our High School will increase. B I '34 . ., THE CARDINAL - 1932 29 OUI' P. T. A. Looking back over our P. T. A. meetings this year, we recall many inter- esting programs. We remember a fine talk by Dr. Van Vlack on Americanization. The good doctor is an ardent American Legion worker and a profound believer in pre- paredness and we were so glad to hear him state the other side of the argument when our minds are so filled with the thoughts of Peace and Disarmament. Our Christmas party under the able direction of Mrs. Corrie Wicks Bab- cock was a great success. Both parents and children enjoyed it immensely. Mrs. Ray Johnson and Mrs. Van Vlack directed the interesting discussion at our Question Box meeting. They convinced us that there was certainly more than one way to bring up our children. When we look at them with their varied and diverse personalities we are glad that parents nowadays try to fit the upbringing to the child rather than insist on every youngster doing the same thing in the same way and along the same groove. No doubt we parents may learn something when we get together next year in our Adult Study Group under the leadership of Mrs. Edward Bootey-we have great hopes. A very beautiful evening was spent with the pictures of George Wash- ington and his family posed for us by members of the D. A. R. with a most interesting talk by Roland K. Mason. We were sorry judge Ottaway was unable to speak to us at the March meeting as planned, but Mrs. Claude Tarbox, our District President, gave us an interesting talk about the inner workings of the P. T. A. Mr. Claude Dye of Fredonia spoke to us at our April meeting on That Teen Age Boy of Yours. He made us feel that he knew his subject and we hope that he can be with us again. We must not forget Mrs. Blair's beautiful music during the evening. It left nothing to be desired. Since the May meeting is really the last regular meeting of the year, it was very fitting to have at this time the privilege of hearing the Mission Choir and Orchestra directed by Miss Ebba Goranson. The speaker of the evening was our much beloved Dr. jane Greeley who spoke on Citizenship in the Home. The june meeting will be in the form of a Music Festival with Miss Flohr in chargeg many grade children and High School students will take part. We feel that we have learned and accomplished many things this past year and we are looking forward to doing great things in the future. MISS GLADYS WEISS Secretary P. T.

H. S., a great deal could be said. Among the most prominent are Dorothy Terrill and Bertie Anderson and Win- nie Peake. Early in the fall there was a contest for the best essay on Wash- ington in conjunction with the Washington Bi-Centennial to be held. Many of the History C Class and English students competed. It was a nation wide contest conducted by the states and a few months after he competition the papers announced the winners of the state and Albertais name was one of the honorable mention. ' Also in conjunction with the Washington Bi-Centennial was a prize ora- tion contest-in which Dorothy competed-her essay was said to have been the best in matter of composition and research work involved. In fact, all dur- ing the year, her written work has been of highest Commendation. Every year at commencement, there is a prize given for the best essay written during English IV. This year, Miss Cooper says she found three es- says so deserving of the prize that it was next to impossible to finally decide on a winner. But there had to be one'-so we have printed in the following pages the best essay of the best. Congratulations to the winner! There was stiff competition, we assure you. C. A., '32 RUDYARD KIPLIN G There is a poem of Kipling's, The Two-Sided Man,', in which he very aptly describes himself. The first verse is quoted- Much I owe to the Lands that grew- More to the Lives that fed- But most to Allah who gave me two Separate sides to my head. This first appealed to me as a rather clever but nonsensical bit of verse. It was also original and new. I have since derived a new meaning-no doubt the one Kipling had in mind when he wrote it. Born and brought up as he was in India, he is essentially British. These are the two, English and Indian, 32 THE CARDINAL - 1932 sides of his nature. He is a realist and romanticist, and a writer of verse and of stories. At first one thinks of Kipling's first name, Rudyard, as of Indian derivation but it is said that it was chosen by his aunt from the little lake of Rudyard where his father's and mother's romance started. His father was an artist and the curator of the British East Indian Museum at Lahore fthis upon moving there not long before Rudyard was born.j Being an artist Mr. Kipling has modeled all of the illustrations in his son's books in clay which are then photo- graphed for the plates. His mother was also a very talented woman whom her husband fquite naturallyj called the wittiest woman in India. Her sisters have married famous men or have had famous sons. Kipling is a cousin to Stanley Baldwin of the present British government. Thus many famous names are linked up with that of Kipling. Rudyard learned Hindustani before he learned English. But this was quite natural for his nurses were native. Being able to understand and speak these native dialects his bedtime stories were no doubt tales of Indian folklore, tradi- tions and ideals. Besides being taught by his nurses of this Indian culture he quickly learned from his Indian friends for habits of observation were early formed. Many of his habits have Indian origin. It was only by his father's command that he finally learned English. But by this time he had become heir to one of the world's oldest and richest civilizations. In learning the English language, ideals and customs he inherited another of the world's old civiliza- tions. Kipling was sent to school in England with his sister. There he was with his aunt a good part of the time who read much to him from the Bible. This colors his poetry now and then. The book, Stalky and Co. is a story of Kip- ling's college life at United Services College. An army career was expected from most boys who attended it but Kipling was entirely different in respect to other boys. He took his pleasure in reading and in other literary activities. He had read an enormous number of books for even then schoolmates said he read five or six lines at a time yet thoroughly getting the meaning of the text. He edited the school newspaper while he was there also. It was not his ex- ceptional brightness which brought him to the foreground but his enthusiasm and capacity for work. As early as this he wrote a number of poems printed now and then in an obscure corner of the newspaper. Finished with college he returned to India to a journalistic career being given a position on a paper in Bombay. There is something of the journalistic attitude in his works even those written after he left the newspapers. He expresses popular opinions and writes of the appealing things of the moment's interest. Many of his first poems were published in the newspaper he worked for as filler. Stories were put out in cheap editions in India but in America and Britain he long had a hard time finding a publisher. Finally an American publisher in London agreed to put THE CARDINAL - 1932 33 out his books and within a year he became famous. His best books and poems had been written before he was through his thirties. He traveled much about the world gathering stores of experiences and material. After studying the various pictures of Kipling which I have been able to see, he seems to me to be a very different and original type, rather quiet and reserved. Squinting through thick-lensed glasses gives him an appearance of having read much and of being observant and keen. Of the two sides of Kipling's character his Eastern phase appeals to me the most. With it he carries all the charm and mystery of the Orient. Writing in this field he seems to me most at home. He is a genius at story-telling and is regarded by his contemporaries as the master short-story teller. Kipling's great- ness lies in his creative ability. But Kipling, the poet, is just as important as the teller of tales. Tommy Atkins, Gunga Din, and Danny Deever have been immortalized in poetry as has Mulvaney in prose. Kipling's main subject in most of his poetry has been the British soldier. He has throughhis poems up- holding the British soldier as in Tommy exerted great influence in bringing about reform. His sincere belief in The White Manis Burden has influenced again Britain's colonial policy. His poetry like his prose is original with a pleas- ing freshness, most manifest to me in Mandalay - I've a neater, sweeter maiden in a cleaner, greener land! On the road to Mandalay! It isnit tainted with forms and customs of other poets. Kipling expresses his own ideas in his own way. He has a wonderful grasp of the English language which so few possess that it is a gem among coals. His poems and stories are anchored fast with that indehnite yet important ueverybodyf' Though critics divide camps against him and accuse him for vulgarity he still remains popular with the people. Kipling has also written poems of the deeper things of life- of his philosophy, When Earth's Last Picture is Paintedw-of a country's pray- er, The Recessionalu-of the qualities he found it necessary a man should pos- sess, IfU-and one of his sincere beliefs, White Man's Burden. Many find criticism for his belief of the White Manis Burden and think that the natural outcome of such a policy is war as indeed was shown by the World War. He has certainly brought the British Empire into closer union. When Kipling writes poetry on such political arguments he is almost bound to raise arguments. He has a great ability to stir up controversy. In the midst of all the uproar he quietly holds his own. Kipling always faces the realties-l'Shall draw the Thing as he sees it, for the God of Things as they are. It is his purpose to observe critically and evaluate. He swings his energy and enthusiasm into his work and presents his contagious force to the world. WINSTON D.

THE CARDINAL - 1932 35 Our Library Occupancy of our attractive new library room this year has given great joy to all the students. With the six sunny windows lighting up books, magazines, reading tables and colorful bulletins and posters, it is such a pleasure to stop in and read. In the words of Alice in Wonderland: You've been listening at doors+-and behind trees-and down chimneys-or you couldn't have known it! I haven't indeed I Alice said very gently. It's in a book. The Eighth graders are telling me of fascinating things found in books. One boy on returning Leaders of the Great War by Rowell which I had urged him to take instead of Hction said, Why that's about the best book I ever read. Boys like books of travel and adventure and aviation and feats of engineer- ing such as: On the Bottom by Captain Ellsberg Boys'Book of Salvage by David Masters Raiders of the Deep by Lowell Thomas Lion by Martin johnson Air Travel by james Mooney Little America by Richard Byrd Falcons of France by Nordhoff Singing Sword by Mark Powell Hyde Siberian Gold by Theodore Harper Red Horse Hill by Stephen Meader 11 u vi I find that girls like just about the same kind of books that boys do includ ing Albert Payson Terhune's dog stories. However, these are favorites with girls 'Beckoning Road by Caroline Snedeker You Make Your Own Luck by Elsie Singmaster Linnet on theThreshold, M.T. Raymond Gay Courage by Emilie Loring Maria Chapdelainen by Louis Hemon Love Comes Riding edited by Helen Ferris I think our High School students in reviewing their year's reading may well say with john Keats: Much have I traveled in the realms of gold And many goodly states and kingdoms seen.

Lakewood can also be proud of their coach that led the boys on their very successful year. Therefore the Senior Class of '32 gives these few pages to review the events that took place in the Sports of L. H. S. FOOTBALL Lakewood's football team will be on record for a long time in the history of L.H.S. sports. We had a large team with many men in the line-up at the start of the year and these men were used as much as possible. Next year's team will be composed of ,many olese so-c.alled..new men. . , . L Through the facilities of the Athletic Boosters Club most of the 1931 schedule was played on the home grid. These home games were played under the gleaming flood lights. Lakewood played nine games and lost one by a one-point margin. This game was the Westfield game, Westfield scoring in the last two minutes to play. Of the other important games there was the fast Indian game where Lakewood came through with a six-point win, the Allegheny game also was won by a six-point margin.

P Lakewood has come to the cross-roads as far as football is concernedg we can contiue with the same old opponents and win all our games or we can work up to a better class and play better teams. No doubt the transition period will be difficult and games will be lost but it is better to lose a well-played game to a strong opponent than to win an easy game from a weak one. At the present time games have been scheduled with Little Valley, Tidioute, Jamestown Reserves, Salamanca, Allegheny, Gowanda and Falconer. J. A. G. '52. BASKETBALL Our Basketball season will also be remembered by the great Lakewood followers. We had a Championship team that just couldn't quite come thru with the necessary wins. The Grape Belt League opened with Lakewood at Chautauqua, Our boys showed superior ball and won out by a good margin. From then on Lakewood controlled the lead along with the Mayville team. Lakewood lost their first League game to Mayville on the Mayville court. In the second half of the game Mayville proved to be the winners by egging out their team twenty-one to twenty. This game will be long remembered by both Lakewood and May Jille. The 1931-52 schedule was as follows: fthe games in pairs indicate home and away gamesj GRAPE BELT LEAGUE Lakewood Clymer .................. Lakewood Mayville . Lakewood Clymer ..................

THE CARDINAL - 1932 39 Inter-class 5PQ.rfS----.. - .- 2 In accordance with the modern trend of high school athletics, Lakewood High School for the past three years has been carrying on an inter-class sports program. This year the program has been more extensive than ever and nearly every boy has participated in at least one sport. A noon-hour volley ball league aroused so much interest and so many teams were entered that it was necessary to form two leagues. The junior class teams were victorious in both the A and B sections with the Seniors placing second in both sections. There was an extensive inter-class program in basketball in which six teams played a schedule of ten games apiece. A total of 70 boys participated in regularly scheduled basketball games. F An inter-class track meet was held in which the Freshmen placed first close- ly pressed by the juniors. The baseball schedule will start to operate in May and june with each class being represented by a team. A great deal of competition is expected to be of- fered before the winner will be decided. ' As soon as the tennis courts are put in shape a tournament will be held, both singles and doubles. An inter-class skating meet is usually held every year but due to lack of ice it was not possible to hold one this year. The entire aim of the inter-class program is to give some form of exercise to those boys who are not participating on the varsity squads. J. A. G. '32, TRACK Lakewood can boast of the best Class B Track Team in Chautauqua County and with all expectations they should hold the County Class B trophy in the school for another year. Last year's team lost every track meet that they entered until they got into the County Championship Meet and then they were among their own class and the Lakewood boys proved better than any other Class B entries. This year the boys are again entering high class meets and are getting the experience that is needed to win the Class B meet at Dunkirk. The report of the first meet was not very good according to points but it aided the boys greatly. The meet was with Gowanda, and Westheld. Among the points that were by Lakewood at the meet were: Pole Vault flst placej ......... Wesley Burke 220 f2nd placej ........... .............

'32. 40 THE CARDINAL - 1932 Girls Athletics Girls sports have been a greater success than ever this year under the able guidance of Miss Dorothea Scheible. The organizations began the year by the purchase of blue gym suits. Because of this, the appearance of the gym classes is much improved. The activities of the year began with a supper hike in Stoneman's Woods. A good time was had by all and a future breakfast hike is looked forward to with great relish. Tennis and swimming continued until late in the season due to the warm weather. The basketball season was greeted with the usual enthusiasm shortly before Christmas. Practice games were played until after regents week when the inter- class tournaments began. This year the games were a little closer and the Class of '32 had to work pretty hard to receive the cup again, which they did for the fourth year. juniors were second, Freshmen third, and Sophomores fourth. During February a number of girls from each class accompanied by Miss Scheible attended a play day in Fredonia. Basketball and games were enjoyed by all-just ask anyone who went. If you chanced to walk into the gym sixth period during the winter, you'd wonder what those girls were trying to do rolling around on the Hoor and get- ting themselves into all positions. Evidently Miss Scheible thought they needed reducing for she was giving her classes stiff workouts in calisthenics. During the late winter and early spring quite an interest was shown in vol- ley ball. This was played in gym classes and after school. As usual a track meet was planned for the middle of May. The events were: 50 yard dash Broad jump 100 yard dash High jump Relay Baseball Throw Basketball Throw For the month of june there are plans for some exciting baseball games in the gym classes and the annual inter-class swimming meet, as soon as the wea- ther permits. Miss Scheible is beginning a Life Saving class to which anyone can belong. On June 4th, Lakewood will send her quota of delegates to a play day in Jamestown. Let's hope the next year will be as successful as this. ' ALBERTA ANDERSON, '52.
